Kamala Says She Will Spend Millions To Build Border Wall

The announcement comes as Kamala promises to sign a new border security bill.

According to a new report by Axios Tuesday morning, Kamala Harris has pledged to allocate hundreds of millions of dollars for the construction of the southern border wall if elected president, a project she previously criticized as "un-American."

The announcement comes as Kamala promises to sign a new border security bill, which allocates unspent funds toward continuing the wall's construction.

The stance marks a significant shift by the Democrat Party toward a tougher stance on immigration, a response to intense attacks from Donald Trump's campaign, which has heavily criticized Kamala on border policy.

The bill, crafted by senators James Lankford (R-Okla.) and Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), mandates that the wall be built to specific standards set during the Trump era, including details on height and design.

Unlike previous proposals, however, the bill would exclude family separation and mass deportation.

In response, Democrats, including Senator Alex Padilla, are voicing concerns about the shift by Kamala, criticizing it as a move toward more restrictive immigration policies.

The shift also comes on the heels of a new campaign ad, in which Kamala calls for tougher border security.

The ad, which features a deep voice narrating over visuals of Border Patrol agents and the border wall highlights Harris's background as a former California Attorney General.

According to Partnership for a New American Economy, roughly 40 percent of all Fortune 500 businesses can directly or indirectly trace their beginnings to somebody that immigrated to the United States from another part of the world.

These businesses have produced millions of jobs and countless services. More precisely, immigrant-founded businesses sell $857 billion in goods annually and employ almost 4 million workers.
